Skillet Corn

Skillet Corn

Corn on the cob is a favorite of mine. Sometimes it can be messy to serve for guests. This dish gives you all the flavor in a less messy way. I also make this when I cook more corn on the cob than we need and have leftovers. If you are looking for a fast and easy side dish this one is a real winner. Only a few ingredients and ready in no time. I used fresh corn cut off the cob but you could use frozen or canned.
